Back in Autumn, I planted dozens of different daffodil bulbs in my garden, and I’m now starting to reap the benefit of that work with many of them in flower. I kept the plant information from the Tahiti Daffodil bulbs packet and according to the info the plants should be flowering ‘from mid-Spring’. It’s definitely still winter, so these beautiful blooms are certainly early. We are lucky to enjoy a bit of a micro-climate in that we are quite sheltered from winds and frosts. I’ve also got many Hyacinth in bloom as well. I always plant these beautiful blooms with the idea that I will pick them, but then I never too – they look too pretty in their pots.
